DIY Duck Tape Textbook Cover

So one of my great blog friends Janel over at Nellie Bellie is The Queen of Duck Tape! She creates so many things out of this stuff... and I thought, I need to give this stuff a whirl!

Aaron is in 8th grade and has 14 textbooks {kidding..but gosh so many} that he was assigned. They drew his blood and he had to give oath that he would not damage these books- or else he will pay a bazillion amount of $$ to replace them.

Duck Tape popped into my head immediately when I found out we needed to "handle these babies with ultimate care!"

So off to Walmart it was...AND LOOK WHAT I FOUND!

Which then caused my face to do this-

...{DUCK FACE!}

I ended up with the bright green {because bright colors are in..did you know that?} blue and a paint splattered style {kind of like paintball splats? maybe?} I checked online and Walmart has even more different styles---HERE!

Are you still there?

Work with me!

BAM!
{or should I say Quack?!}

I honestly wasn't sure if this would be "cool" enough for Aaron...my big 8th grader. But I am happy to report he gave me 2 thumbs up and a "Mom that looks good!"

1 point for Me!Question: Do you Duck Tape with a Duck Face? Answer: It will win you cool points, think about it!

Yes, ma'am! Totally stealing this! Cam had to pay $48 just to take his books home, and then we pay extra if they are damaged...guess who is covering his books? Ummmm...that would be me! Thanks for the tute, chicky!

What an INSPIRED idea.... you need to share that on our ALL STARS BLOCK PARTY that starts tonight at 8 central.... ( pardon the commercial interruption...hehehe) I LOVE Duct tape.... Duct tape is your friend... I am so going to do this with some of my own school books since they're rentals... How kewl.... and a Duck face.... O baby can I make a duck face.... P.S. Check my blog out Thursday afternoon there's going to be something you might just like not to mention a small tribute to you my mentor of all things musical.. hehehe! Can't wait!

It looks great! My nephew made a wallet out of duck tape. And the summer art programs has a whole class on making things with the duck tape and the kids love it. Thanks for sharing at the All Star Block Party!
